An extraordinary specimen composed of distinct, angular crystals of magnetite pseudomorphed to hematite. A great piece with no damage save a tiny nick or two if you look ultraclosely. This is one of the more robust, dramatic examples I have had in awhile for this material. It is an exceptional example of the finds. 330 grams
